Key Takeaways from ASCM 2025 Supply Chain Salary and Career Report

In this episode of Supply Chain Now, hosts Scott W. Luton and Karin Bursa sit down with Abe Eshkenazi, CEO of the Association for Supply Chain Management (ASCM), to unpack the latest insights from the 2025 Supply Chain Salary and Career Report. Together, they explore how the role of supply chain professionals is evolving, and what the data tells us about compensation, career satisfaction, and the path forward for the industry.

Abe shares what’s changed since the report began in 2017, from a $78,000 median salary to over $103,000 today, and why supply chain roles are now seen as strategic—not just operational. They discuss trends in workforce demographics, flexible work, and the narrowing gender pay gap, as well as the impact of certifications on career growth.
